and other pipe net works from source of supply and such distribution pipe network

layout and progress of the other construction works. In such case, the rate for water

EMPLOYER every month for Construction Works power which would be

completion of hydrostatic testing of the pipeline, Contractor shall dewater the
pipeline. The dewatering operation shall consist of at least two dewatering runs
of four-cup bi-directional pigs propelled by compressed air. As a minimum,
Contractor shall continue the dewatering operation until the volume of water
removed by the last pig train is less than volume of 2 metres of full pipe length.
After completion of dewatering operations, Contractor shall carry out swabbing

of pipeline by running several pig trains consisting of high/ medium/ low density
foam pigs propelled by compressed air through the pipeline. Prior to their
launching, Contractor shall weigh the pigs. On arrival of the pigs at the receiving
end they shall be re-weighed. The swabbing operation shall be repeated till the
weight of the last received foam pig does not increase by more than 50% or 10
runs of foam pigs whichever is earlier.
The pipeline/ section(s) of pipeline shall never be left empty (filled with air)
after dewatering/ swabbing. Contractor shall take up dewatering and swabbing
of pipeline after hydrotesting only when Contractor is ready for carrying out the
drying operation immediately following pipeline swabbing. Till such time
Contractor is ready to start drying of pipeline, the pipeline/ section(s) of pipeline
after hydro testing shall be kept filled with inhibited water or the pipeline/
section(s) of pipeline shall not be dewatered. Preservation of pipeline using
inhibited water from the time of completion of hydro testing till Contractor is
ready for drying of pipeline, shall be carried out by Contractor as part of his
scope of work at no extra cost to Owner.

c) For Minor suspected Leak (attributable to Owner) which can not be

visually located and which requires sectionalising of pipeline or any
other suitable means, rates of activities for leak detection shall be
derived from rates of equipments and manpower available in the
Contract. However for the pipe which needs to be replaced after the
leak has been located, the payment will be made as per SOR item i.e.
same as (b) above.
In case after sectionalisation/ other method no leak is detected, for such

eventuality no payment will be made for efforts made for sectionalising/ other
means.
